War TV Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D]
[A][D][G][D]
[A]There's a war

[Verse 1]
[D]on the TV
In a [G]town called [D]the world
And the [G]suits turn [D]their profit
While the [A]mayhem unfurls
They're all [D]quick to make war
But they [G]won't send [D]their sons
Shout [G]the odds like a gang[D]ster
[A]But they won't hold [D]a gun

[Verse 2]
[D]And [G]I'm[D] no[A]' scare[D]d of dying
I'll [G]fight any [D]man
I might [G]no' be [D]the strongest
[A]But I'll do what I can
[D]And I'm no' that religious
But if [G]God's got [D]a plan
Then I [G]don't think it's [D]bombing
[A]In a far away land
[D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
And there's [G]no use pretending
that you [D]don't understand
[A]With your arse in the air
and your [Bm]head in the sand
You don't [G]need me tell you
that's the [D]way that it goes
[A]Be [Bm]cause deep down inside
[D]Way [G]deep down inside
You [A]already know

[Verse 4]
(If you are [D]not close to
home when you hear the warning
Go to the nearest safe cover
Know where you are to go or ask an older person
[G]for help[D][G][D][G][D]
You know the places marked
with the "S" sign
Those are safe places to go
[A]when you hear the alarm)

[Verse 5]
I don't [D]mean to offend
Or add [G]fuel to [D]the fire
We're [G]all stood in si[D]lence
[A]While the head count gets higher
There's di[D]vided opinion
Every [G]corner [D]you turn
Now [G]Nero stands [D]laughing
[A]While the Empire burns
[D][G][D][A]

[Verse 6]
And there's [G]no use pretending
that you [D]don't understand
[A]With your arse in the air an
[E]d your [Bm]head in the sand
You don't [G]need me tell you
that's the [D]way that it goes
[A]Be [Bm]cause deep down inside
[G]Way deep down inside
You [A]already know
[D](Paul and Patty would have covered

[Verse 7]
[D]
this way, like this girl
[G]Heavy [D]doo[G]rwa[D]ys are a good place to duck
and cover
She will be safer too
[G]Here's Tony [D]going to
his cub scout meeting
Tony knows the bomb
can go off any time of the year
[A]Day or night)
There's a [D]race to the finish

[Verse 8]
From the [G]east to [D]the west
'Cause we're [G]all waking
up [D]now
[A]Where there's some try their best
To di[D]vide us and conquer
Like [G]chickens [D]and cows
On [G]the animal [D]farm
[A]As the sun's going down

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]
[G][D]

[Verse 9]
And there's [G]no use pretending
that you [D]don't understand
[A]With your arse in the air
and your [Bm]head in the sand
You don't [G]need me tell you that's
the [D]way that it goes
Because deep [Bm]down inside
[G]Way deep down inside
Way deep [Bm]down in

[Verse 10]
side
[Bm]Way deep d[G]own inside
(deep down inside)
You already know
